Subject: x86/mm/pat, /dev/mem: Remove superfluous error message
From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina(a)suse.cz>
commit 39380b80d72723282f0ea1d1bbf2294eae45013e upstream.
Currently it's possible for broken (or malicious) userspace to flood a
kernel log indefinitely with messages a-la
Program dmidecode tried to access /dev/mem between f0000->100000
because range_is_allowed() is case of CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM being turned on
dumps this information each and every time devmem_is_allowed() fails.
Reportedly userspace that is able to trigger contignuous flow of these
messages exists.
It would be possible to rate limit this message, but that'd have a
questionable value; the administrator wouldn't get information about all
the failing accessess, so then the information would be both superfluous
and incomplete at the same time :)
Returning EPERM (which is what is actually happening) is enough indication
for userspace what has happened; no need to log this particular error as
some sort of special condition.

Subject: sysrq: Fix warning in sysrq generated crash.
From: Ani Sinha <ani(a)arista.com>
commit 984cf355aeaa8f2eda3861b50d0e8d3e3f77e83b upstream.
Commit 984d74a72076a1 ("sysrq: rcu-ify __handle_sysrq") replaced
spin_lock_irqsave() calls with rcu_read_lock() calls in sysrq. Since
rcu_read_lock() does not disable preemption, faulthandler_disabled() in
__do_page_fault() in x86/fault.c returns false. When the code later calls
might_sleep() in the pagefault handler, we get the following warning:
BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at ../arch/x86/mm/fault.c:1187
in_atomic(): 0, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 4706, name: bash
Preemption disabled at:[<ffffffff81484339>] printk+0x48/0x4a
To fix this, we release the RCU read lock before we crash.
Tested this patch on linux 3.18 by booting off one of our boards.

From: Ulf Hansson <ulf.hansson(a)linaro.org>
commit 79c5623f1cb85f33403eb9f1e45124e9f56181f8 upstream.
The commit 7d32cdef5356 ("usb: musb: fail with error when no DMA
controller set"), caused the core platform driver to correctly return an
error code when fail probing.
Unfurtante it also caused bug for a NULL pointer dereference, during
system suspend for the ux500 driver. The reason is a lacking validation
of the corresponding ->driver_data pointer, which won't be set when the
musb core driver fails to probe (or haven't yet been probed).

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet(a)google.com>
commit b7c6d2675899cfff0180412c63fc9cbd5bacdb4d upstream.
We need to ensure there is enough headroom to push extra header,
but we also need to check if we are allowed to change headers.
skb_cow_head() is the proper helper to deal with this.

commit 5ee3c60c8d3b88cab6496c9b7d49a01576dd9cf9 upstream.
When the autosuspend is enabled and occurs before system suspend, we should
wake the device before running system syspend. Then, we could change the wake
event for system suspend. Otherwise, the device would resume the system when
receiving any packet.

Subject: hwrng: core - sleep interruptible in read
From: Jiri Slaby <jslaby(a)suse.cz>
commit 1ab87298cb59b649d8d648d25dc15b36ab865f5a upstream.
hwrng kthread can be waiting via hwrng_fillfn for some data from a rng
like virtio-rng:
hwrng D ffff880093e17798 0 382 2 0x00000000
...
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff817339c6>] wait_for_completion_killable+0x96/0x210
[<ffffffffa00aa1b7>] virtio_read+0x57/0xf0 [virtio_rng]
[<ffffffff814f4a35>] hwrng_fillfn+0x75/0x130
[<ffffffff810aa243>] kthread+0xf3/0x110
And when some user program tries to read the /dev node in this state,
we get:
rngd D ffff880093e17798 0 762 1 0x00000004
...
Call Trace:
[<ffffffff817351ac>] mutex_lock_nested+0x15c/0x3e0
[<ffffffff814f478e>] rng_dev_read+0x6e/0x240
[<ffffffff81231958>] __vfs_read+0x28/0xe0
[<ffffffff81232393>] vfs_read+0x83/0x130
And this is indeed unkillable. So use mutex_lock_interruptible
instead of mutex_lock in rng_dev_read and exit immediatelly when
interrupted. And possibly return already read data, if any (as POSIX
allows).

Subject: zswap: don't param_set_charp while holding spinlock
From: Dan Streetman <ddstreet(a)ieee.org>
commit fd5bb66cd934987e49557455b6497fc006521940 upstream.
Change the zpool/compressor param callback function to release the
zswap_pools_lock spinlock before calling param_set_charp, since that
function may sleep when it calls kmalloc with GFP_KERNEL.
While this problem has existed for a while, I wasn't able to trigger it
using a tight loop changing either/both the zpool and compressor params; I
think it's very unlikely to be an issue on the stable kernels, especially
since most zswap users will change the compressor and/or zpool from sysfs
only one time each boot - or zero times, if they add the params to the
kernel boot.

Subject: mm/zswap: use workqueue to destroy pool
From: Dan Streetman <ddstreet(a)ieee.org>
commit 200867af4dedfe7cb707f96773684de1d1fd21e6 upstream.
Add a work_struct to struct zswap_pool, and change __zswap_pool_empty to
use the workqueue instead of using call_rcu().
When zswap destroys a pool no longer in use, it uses call_rcu() to
perform the destruction/freeing. Since that executes in softirq
context, it must not sleep. However, actually destroying the pool
involves freeing the per-cpu compressors (which requires locking the
cpu_add_remove_lock mutex) and freeing the zpool, for which the
implementation may sleep (e.g. zsmalloc calls kmem_cache_destroy, which
locks the slab_mutex). So if either mutex is currently taken, or any
other part of the compressor or zpool implementation sleeps, it will
result in a BUG().
It's not easy to reproduce this when changing zswap's params normally.
In testing with a loaded system, this does not fail:
$ cd /sys/module/zswap/parameters
$ echo lz4 > compressor ; echo zsmalloc > zpool
nor does this:
$ while true ; do
> echo lzo > compressor ; echo zbud > zpool
> sleep 1
> echo lz4 > compressor ; echo zsmalloc > zpool
> sleep 1
> done
although it's still possible either of those might fail, depending on
whether anything else besides zswap has locked the mutexes.
However, changing a parameter with no delay immediately causes the
schedule while atomic BUG:
$ while true ; do
> echo lzo > compressor ; echo lz4 > compressor
> done
This is essentially the same as Yu Zhao's proposed patch to zsmalloc,
but moved to zswap, to cover compressor and zpool freeing.

Subject: mm/page-writeback: fix dirty_ratelimit calculation
From: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin(a)virtuozzo.com>
commit d59b1087a98e402ed9a7cc577f4da435f9a555f5 upstream.
Calculation of dirty_ratelimit sometimes is not correct. E.g. initial
values of dirty_ratelimit == INIT_BW and step == 0, lead to the
following result:
UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in ../mm/page-writeback.c:1286:7
shift exponent 25600 is too large for 64-bit type 'long unsigned int'
The fix is straightforward - make step 0 if the shift exponent is too
big.

Subject: mm/compaction: pass only pageblock aligned range to pageblock_pfn_to_page
From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim(a)lge.com>
commit e1409c325fdc1fef7b3d8025c51892355f065d15 upstream.
pageblock_pfn_to_page() is used to check there is valid pfn and all
pages in the pageblock is in a single zone. If there is a hole in the
pageblock, passing arbitrary position to pageblock_pfn_to_page() could
cause to skip whole pageblock scanning, instead of just skipping the
hole page. For deterministic behaviour, it's better to always pass
pageblock aligned range to pageblock_pfn_to_page(). It will also help
further optimization on pageblock_pfn_to_page() in the following patch.

Subject: locks: don't check for race with close when setting OFD lock
From: Jeff Layton <jeff.layton(a)primarydata.com>
commit 0752ba807b04ccd69cb4bc8bbf829a80ee208a3c upstream.
We don't clean out OFD locks on close(), so there's no need to check
for a race with them here. They'll get cleaned out at the same time
that flock locks are.

Subject: mm/compaction: fix invalid free_pfn and compact_cached_free_pfn
From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim(a)lge.com>
commit 623446e4dc45b37740268165107cc63abb3022f0 upstream.
free_pfn and compact_cached_free_pfn are the pointer that remember
restart position of freepage scanner. When they are reset or invalid,
we set them to zone_end_pfn because freepage scanner works in reverse
direction. But, because zone range is defined as [zone_start_pfn,
zone_end_pfn), zone_end_pfn is invalid to access. Therefore, we should
not store it to free_pfn and compact_cached_free_pfn. Instead, we need
to store zone_end_pfn - 1 to them. There is one more thing we should
consider. Freepage scanner scan reversely by pageblock unit. If
free_pfn and compact_cached_free_pfn are set to middle of pageblock, it
regards that sitiation as that it already scans front part of pageblock
so we lose opportunity to scan there. To fix-up, this patch do
round_down() to guarantee that reset position will be pageblock aligned.
Note that thanks to the current pageblock_pfn_to_page() implementation,
actual access to zone_end_pfn doesn't happen until now. But, following
patch will change pageblock_pfn_to_page() so this patch is needed from
now on.

Subject: locking/mutex: Allow next waiter lockless wakeup
From: Davidlohr Bueso <dave(a)stgolabs.net>
commit 1329ce6fbbe4536592dfcfc8d64d61bfeb598fe6 upstream.
Make use of wake-queues and enable the wakeup to occur after releasing the
wait_lock. This is similar to what we do with rtmutex top waiter,
slightly shortening the critical region and allow other waiters to
acquire the wait_lock sooner. In low contention cases it can also help
the recently woken waiter to find the wait_lock available (fastpath)
when it continues execution.

Subject: futex: Replace barrier() in unqueue_me() with READ_ONCE()
From: Jianyu Zhan <nasa4836(a)gmail.com>
commit 29b75eb2d56a714190a93d7be4525e617591077a upstream.
Commit e91467ecd1ef ("bug in futex unqueue_me") introduced a barrier() in
unqueue_me() to prevent the compiler from rereading the lock pointer which
might change after a check for NULL.
Replace the barrier() with a READ_ONCE() for the following reasons:
1) READ_ONCE() is a weaker form of barrier() that affects only the specific
load operation, while barrier() is a general compiler level memory barrier.
READ_ONCE() was not available at the time when the barrier was added.
2) Aside of that READ_ONCE() is descriptive and self explainatory while a
barrier without comment is not clear to the casual reader.
No functional change.
